The following sections briefly describe the the ATSAS Application Launcher, and how to start it from the command-line and the platform Application Menu. It further provides a list of available application wizards.

Introduction

The ATSAS Application Launcher is a graphical user interface featuring a collection of wizards designed to simplify the configuration and use of many, often complex, ATSAS command-line applications.

Each wizard operates independently, allowing multiple wizards to be started and run in parallel. All tasks are managed within an internal task queue. The ATSAS Launcher avoids starting more tasks than there are available CPU cores, enabling users to queue multiple analysis runs and let them complete overnight. All results are stored in separate temporary directories, which can be saved to a final location or discarded as needed.

Main Features:

Graphical wizards for the most commonly used ATSAS applications
Ability to run multiple wizards in parallel, with task queuing and parallel execution
Output separation into temporary directories for easy management and storage
